Question
Bring out the inconsistency in the following:
bYX = bXY = 1.50 and r = - 0.9
Solution
Given, bYX = bXY = 1.50 and r = - 0.9
Here, the coefficient of regressions is positive and the coefficient of correlation is negative.
But, for consistent data they must have the same signs.
∴ The given data is inconsistent.
